IT IS MY great pleasure to announce the publication of “Wrapped in Vines & Cast in Lead ” — a lyrically eloquent and handsome broadside designed and printed letterpress by Theresa Whitehill and Paulo Ferreira at their Colored Horse Studios, Ukiah, California. The original poem was composed by Theresa Whitehill, recognized poet, fine press printer, graphic designer, and book artist. Tendril readers will remember her 2007 magnificent book, Stags’ Leap Winery: A Guide to the Estate in five volumes—unequaled in its design and production. The gnarled-grapevine linoleum block, inspired by a grand old “soldier” of seventy vintages, was created by renowned artist Paulo Ferreira. His work, which has been exhibited internationally, encompasses oil painting, assemblage, sculpture, graphic design, and photography. Theresa’s and Paulo’s talents were specifically commissioned for this Wayward Tendrils broadside, printed November 2009, in two colors, on their Vandercook #4 Cylinder Press on Italian mouldmade Magnani Pescia White 100% cotton paper, 12″ x 20″, with two deckle edges. The very limited edition of 50 is numbered and signed by the poet and artist.

Yours Tendril-ly, Gail Unzelman
